Features:
  • New Activities! The title is a series of minigames designed to give your brain a workout. The 17 new, engaging activities are all designed to help work your brain and increase blood flow to the prefrontal cortex. Whether you're playing simple songs on a piano keyboard or monitoring the photo finish of a footrace, you'll love your new mental workout!
  • Keep training! When you start a new game, you will take a series of tests and get a score that shows how old your brain is. This number is called your Brain Age. With daily training over weeks and months, you can improve your mental acuity and lower your Brain Age. Progress is charted in graph form.
  • Expanded multiplayer! You can keep up to four save files on one game card. Sharing a game allows you to compete in a picture-drawing quiz or a word challenge with family and friends. You can also use DS Download Play to send a demo to friends or compete with up to 16 players in one of four fun modes.

5 out of 5 stars A good way to spend your time.   September 23, 2008
I like this game for the following reasons:
-it actually does give your brain a good workout in short bursts
-you can see your progress and compare it to others
-just when you start to get proficient in something the game ups the ante and allows you to select the "hard" option, which unlocks more challenging puzzles

The changes that I would like to make to the game:
-sometimes the screens in between activities can get a little boring to constantly click through. I'd like to just give me a quick tip then on to the next activity.

Overall, I would highly recommend the game. It's always in my DS and I pick it up whenever I'm waiting in a long line, on the train, or in a waiting area for something.



4 out of 5 stars Brain Age 2   September 23, 2008
Pretty fun game if you enjoy challenging your mind. Whether or not it has improved my brain function like advertised is unclear. Mostly plays the way it is supposed to although the rules for some of the games could have been made clearer.


3 out of 5 stars Brain Age 2 is much more challenging   September 22, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Brain Age 2 is much harder than 1. It's challenging so if you're up for a good one, start with Brain age 2. Brain Age 1 seems like it has more math problems.

I tinker between the two every now and then. My favorite of Brain Age 2 is the keyboard. I hate the clock!



4 out of 5 stars Fun!   September 22, 2008
I have had this game for a few months now and the more and more I play it, I actually like it less, but I still play it almost daily.
I don't like how sometimes before you start playing you have to draw shapes and do acrostics etc. I just want to play and not do any of that stuff.
Unless you get down to a brain age of 20 years or less it's bad. Even if you are at you age, it still acts like you scored an age of 80.
Most of the games are math orientated and once you get used to them are really easy; but the hard versions are impossible!
But even though I have a lot of gripes, I really do love this game and think everyone who has a DS should have one!



2 out of 5 stars Too much information   September 11, 2008
Navigating through the information screens every time you want to play a game (even in quick play mode!!) is monotonous. The Sudoku games are fun and challenging, but can be improved upon by tapping the numbers into the boxes instead of having to write them. Sometimes the software doesn't recognize your writing, which will cause you to lose points.
